I began to like classical music as a high school student, but wasn't particularly appreciative of Baroque music until college, when a friend played me her album of Bach's music sung a capella by a group called the Swingle Singers. Their rendition of his music "got to me," and turned my interests to some really great music I might have otherwise ignored. I would love to hear one of their Bach arrangements on 5 O'Clock Favorite!
